Raindrop.io by Rustem Mussabekov
Review by greggha
Rated 5 out of 5
by greggha, 9 years agoThis add-on is outstanding. After trying many script/memory/disk space heavy alternatives to simple bookmarking - happening upon Raindrop.io was very satisfying. As a business operator with countless resources to monitor from economics, law/regulatory changes, supplier websites and everything in between - Raindrop.io has made bookmarking as simple as the classic NetScape implementation of "bookmarks" and added a visually elegant UI with low requirements, and easy navigation/functionality.
I can't recommend Raindrop.io enough! The price is reasonable as well - and there is nothing that makes you itch for the paid version - although people with many, many websites to keep up with will find the subscription to be a great productivity asset. In any case it's always nice to support open source software with a donation!
Very Nice Work, Rustem Mussabekov!

- Rated 1 out of 5by ff, 15 days agoThe extension's actually ok, but the service is not. Would leave zero stars if it were an option.
- the much-touted UI is...basically the same as Firefox's ancient one with a few ajax flourishes
- what's worse, the UI is *very* unreliable: you move something and find out a few minutes later it didn't move at all even though the UI *showed* it in the new location; this happened dozens of times
- you can't export the collections: it would only let me export the bookmark URLs (not grouped/tagged) or the *original* data I uploaded
- the "AI" took an > 1 hour to do its "magic": with ~400 bookmarks, made a few reasonable suggestions, then *never worked again* (even after I substantially reorganized things, it'd tell me "not enough data...")
TL;DR: the extension's a pretty good front end for a service that's not worth using and won't let you export your own data. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13676056, 2 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by hoanglan87, 3 months agoNearly perfect for me, but another icon/button/action on address bar to one-click-save current page will make this perfect

- Rated 2 out of 5by Hissymaster, 4 months agoIf "my privacy comes first" like you claim, Why isn't there an offline mode?
No seriously. If My stuff is STORED LOCALLY. Why can I NOT ACCESS THEM OFFLINE, ACCOUNTLESS, WITHOUT RELYING ON THE SERVERS. - Rated 4 out of 5by Shajirr, 5 months agoQuite powerful bookmarks manager.
What's really annoying is that unless you set
privacy.firstparty.isolate to false, you won't be able to login at all. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13550550, 5 months agogreat addon. highlight is working now.
however, the highlighted text loses hyperlink property and becomes plain text only.
it'd be great if the text could keep the hyperlink.
thanks. - Rated 4 out of 5by deigue, 6 months ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 18977911, 7 months agoGreat way to organise bookmarks. However - highligth doesn't work if you need that. I dont really so no biggie.
Also, its AI suggested organization is so so BUT better than other competitors
syncs everywhere perfectly - Rated 1 out of 5by atprn, 7 months ago
